I was going to say "
£30?" but I've just seen that it looks to be a decent amount longer and more awesome than the first one, so it could be worth it.

It also has a Co-op mode which should make it twice as fun

Oh, I thought they were going to do some sort of combo pack since it's a co-op game and it's Valentine's Day.
I was going to ask you to be my Portal 2 Valentine's as well Steve

How can Valve ask £26.99?
I pre ordered the Orange Box for around that price (prices were in US Dollars at the time) from Steam and got 5 games.
If they reckon it's 6 hours game time for SP and another 6 for CO OP then it just aint worth £26.99
I'll wait a while until its on offer.

I was expecting them to at least offer a 4 pack deal for £20 each, like L4D2 .

You're probably better off buying the PS3 version, from what I understand you get the PC version included.
Then sell the PS3 version and it will probably work out cheaper.
Just had a look around, pre prices for this are too expensive for a 6 hour SP campaign.

Well to be fair Portal 1 was essentially free with the Orange Box considering most of us bought it for Episode 2. Also, i thought this was meant to be a much longer game than Portal, certainly longer than 6 hours. I do agree that €45 is too much but at the same time Valve have never really let us down before and there's already talk of extra dlc being released further down the line (which I'm guessing will be the standard cost of free for the PC and PS3).

Much like the steep price I'm guessing this is a product of the retail outlets throwing a tantrum. In a case like this they could probably refuse to stock not only PC copies (which they won't anyway) but also xBox and PS3 copies so Valve possibly have to play ball.
I'm torn, I want to give my money directly to Valve but it's inevitably going to be cheaper elsewhere for exactly the same product.

Meh ordered. Been waiting for it for ages, and it'll be worth it.

When I built this PC about 16 months ago I bought a shed load of games and bought a fair few the next 6 months asap. But now with so many games i aint finished I have the luxury of not feeling the need to buy straight away and getting them a bit later cheaper.
I am looking forward to this one though!
